DOI: 10.1016/j.enconman.2021.114101
Abstract: Abstract The growing production of non-recyclable urban wastes generates environmental problems that impose new alternatives for their energetic valorisation. Nonetheless, some of these wastes do not have adequate properties to be directly used in waste-to-energy… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Hydrothermal carbonisation (HTC) is an attractive biomass pre-treatment as it produces a coal-like fuel, can easily process wet biomass and wastes, and lowers the risk of slagging and fouling in pulverised fuel (PF) combustion… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.indcrop.2018.02.005
Abstract: Abstract Two series of carbons were prepared from Agave americana fibres (A) mixed with mimosa Tannin (T) at different T to A weight ratios W = 0/4; 1/3; 2/2; 3/1 and 4/0. The first series, CTAW, was… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/d0gc00998a
Abstract: Introduced in the literature in 1913 by Bergius, who at the time was studying biomass coalification, hydrothermal carbonisation, as many other technologies based on renewables, was forgotten during the “industrial revolution”. It was rediscovered back… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/en12091586
Abstract: Hydrothermal carbonisation (HTC) has been identified as a potential route for digestate enhancement producing a solid hydrochar and a process water rich in organic carbon. This study compares the treatment of four dissimilar digestates from… read more here.

DOI: 10.5004/dwt.2017.20782
Abstract: The hydrothermal carbonisation (HTC) conversion of wet wastes, such as sewage sludge, generates a carbon-rich material (called ‘hydrochar’), and an aqueous fraction with a small release of gas. The liquid fraction is high in soluble… read more here.
